This year marks the 35th anniversary of Driver Appreciation Week! We’re immensely grateful for the hard work and sacrifice of all our drivers out on the road. So much of what we do on a day to day basis is made possible by the work that truck drivers do. 

Last year we covered some deals drivers can take advantage of during Driver Appreciation Week and for the entire month of September. This year we’re doing the same, and we’ve even added a couple more to the list:

Love’s Truck Stops

Drivers can access special deals throughout September by joining the My Love Rewards program or downloading the Love’s Connect app. 

From September 11-15, Love’s is having daily deals on select food and drink items through the Love’s Connect App. 

While supplies last, drivers can even score a free hat by purchasing a 3-pack of gloves for $9.99.

For more information and additional deals, visit the Love’s website here. 

Sheetz

To celebrate the 35th annual Driver Appreciation Week, Sheetz will be reducing the price of diesel fuel by 35 cents per gallon at all of their locations. The discount will be offered from September 4-16. 

From September 4-16 you can also get diesel exhaust fluid at Sheetz for 99 cents per gallon.

Drivers can get additional discounts on food and drink items on the Sheetz app through the beginning of October. Download the app here.
